Hi,

I am having a few issues with running smartpca, which I have installed using conda. The software initially runs successfully, but stalls after the total number of snps killed in pass:xxxxx step.

Please find below the command line transcript in its entirety:

smartpca -p  test.L.pca.par
parameter file: test.L.pca.par

I have attempted to run smartpca on a number of different datasets, of differing sizes and origins, but the result/lack of result is the same. I have left the program running for a number of weeks, but the command line output does not differ after thirty minutes or so of running.

Is this a known issue? And if so how might I remedy?

Thanks,

William

Hi Nick,

Thanks for the rapid response. After an hour of running the above amendments, it has stalled in the same manner.

Hi there,

I encountered the same problem when running smartpca as described by William. Are there any solutions or suggestions for this issue? Thank you in advance!
